Bill Summary

Altering the definition of an above ground storage tank

AI Summary

This bill alters the definition of an above ground storage tank (AST) by excluding certain categories of devices from the provisions of the existing law. The bill also modifies the inspection requirements for ASTs, exempting certain tanks located in a zone of critical concern from the evaluation and certification requirements, but requiring self-inspection and secondary containment inspections for those tanks. The bill provides more flexibility for the Secretary of the Department of Environmental Protection to amend existing permits or plans to include conditions pertaining to the management and control of regulated ASTs.
